Steve Brandli is a phenomenal attorney and human being. He is unbelievably intelligent and ethical, something you don’t find in many attorneys. Our lives were turned upside down but with his patience and wisdom, brutal honesty, and meticulous work, we prevailed and got our life back. We are grateful to have had him backing us in our pursuit of justice.
I worked with Steve during my separation process, after attempting to do it on my own unsuccessfully. Eventually after 17 months from start to finish my divorce was finalized. With Steve’s guidance, my ex husband and I did telephone mediation. Because my ex was away for almost a year and a half, when he returned, Steve helped me again in order to get his address and to adjust the visitation schedule. The whole process of divorce is quite gruesome, but Steve helped me in just so many ways. He’s good at working with others, figuring out what is needed and what will be best, and then just making it happen. He knows the ropes of the court dynamics and is also willing to attempt to settle outside of court. I couldn’t have done it without his support, and for that, with gratitude, I highly recommend him.

Highly Recommended!!
Steve Brandli was excellent during many difficult situations that I and my family went through where we needed an Attorney. He and his wife BJ went above and beyond. I felt supported and not judged going through tough circumstances. I can not put in to words the gratitude that I feel.

All positive Kudos for this mans ability and honesty
Steve, along with his wife as Para legal assistant are really a boon to this community in the quality offered in their service of family law. I found Steve to be a man of uncommon integrity, dealing the with issues openly and really able to listen to my needs in a very sticky divorce situation and to communicate his thoughts clearly both pro and con on how to approach each issue involved. He is a very competent negotiator with extremely quick math ability to adjust and counter offer as needed. His focus has always been to try to attain the goals of this client, and yet to be very open and realistic when it comes to giving feed back on the possibilities. I would definitely recommend him. He has proven to me that there are indeed a few attorneys that will try to resolve issues, rather than drag it out as you reach for you wallet.

I cannot say enough...
Steve was everything you could hope to find in a terrible situation. He was exceptionally competent in the law, careful of schedules, gentle and supportive of me personally, and always the coolest head in the room. BJ, his assistant, was wonderfully considerate, supportive and helpful with the difficult tasks.

"I endorse this lawyer. I have worked with Stephen on a few matters over the years and I have been impressed with his skills and abilities and I refer and recommend with confidence."
"Steve was the Prosecutor and I was the public defender for 1.5 years. We were on opposing sides on many, many cases, and several trials. He was a formidable opponent, and I can say there were times when he was downright brilliant! Now that he has gone into private practice, I expect he will be as good of a criminal defense attorney as he was a prosecutor."
